In fact, there are many reasons why you might want to <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.hubspot.com\/website\/what-is-a-wiki\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">create your own wiki<\/a>. If you use WordPress, however, you may wonder if you can create a wiki with that software.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>WordPress wasn\u2019t designed with wikis in mind, but it is still flexible enough to accommodate them. By using the right tools, you can create your own WordPress wiki quickly and easily. There are even multiple methods you can try, including plugins, themes, and custom code snippets.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this article, we\u2019ll explore how to build your wiki with WordPress. Let\u2019s jump right in!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Getting started on your WordPress wiki<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you can start building your wiki, there are certain resources you\u2019ll need. These things will make the process faster and easier:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>A WordPress website.<\/strong> You should have hosting (preferably <a href=\"https:\/\/wpengine.com\/support\/how-to-build-a-new-site\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">WordPress-specific hosting<\/a>) and a domain, as well as <a href=\"https:\/\/wpengine.com\/support\/how-to-build-a-new-site\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">a WordPress website<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>A knowledge base integration method.<\/strong> There are three main ways to add a wiki to your existing site. You can <a href=\"https:\/\/wpengine.com\/resources\/install-wordpress-on-subdomain\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">use a subdomain<\/a>, add a <a href=\"https:\/\/wpengine.com\/support\/blog-sub-directory\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">new directory<\/a> with its own WordPress installation, or use <a href=\"https:\/\/wpengine.com\/support\/what-is-wordpress-multisite\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">WordPress multisite<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>The content for your wiki.<\/strong> Having the content ready to go helps you get your wiki live sooner. This can include documentation, FAQs, and other support materials.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>With these three elements in place, you\u2019re ready to set up the wiki itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Creating a WordPress wiki: Step-by-step process<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are three methods commonly used to create a WordPress wiki site: plugins, themes, and custom code snippets. We suggest reading through all three options, and then choosing the one that works best for your needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Using a WordPress wiki plugin<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have an existing website and want to add a wiki to it, a plugin might be the best solution. Plugins are the least intrusive method, and you can continue using your existing theme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Try using these plugins to create your wiki<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While there are <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.hubspot.com\/website\/best-wordpress-wiki-knowledge-base-plugins\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">many wiki plugins available<\/a>, you might want to consider the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/yada-wiki\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Yada Wiki<\/strong><\/a><strong>:<\/strong> A free and very beginner-friendly option.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/buddypress-docs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>BuddyPress Docs<\/strong><\/a><strong>:<\/strong> Another free plugin, designed to integrate with <a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/buddypress\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">BuddyPress<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/codecanyon.net\/item\/knowledge-base-helpdesk-wiki-wordpress-plugin\/5758910\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Knowledge Base<\/strong><\/a><strong>:<\/strong> A premium knowledge base plugin with lots of features.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Any of these tools can get the job done, so the choice will come down to personal preference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 1: Install and activate your plugin<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To start building your wiki, install and activate your chosen plugin. In our example, we\u2019ll use the <a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/yada-wiki\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Yada Wiki<\/a> plugin. You can install it in your WordPress dashboard, or by visiting the WordPress Plugin Directory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 2: Add wiki content<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>After the plugin is activated, a wiki will be automatically created for your website under <em>www.yourwebsite.com\/wiki<\/em>. You can start adding content to it right away:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Navigate to <em>Wiki Pages<\/em> &gt; <em>Add New<\/em>. Add a title to the page, and insert (or create) the content. This process is very similar to adding a post or page to your WordPress website.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once your content is ready, you can add a <a href=\"https:\/\/wpengine.com\/resources\/wordpress-categories-and-tags\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">category, tags<\/a>, and featured image. Then click on <em>Publish<\/em> to add the wiki page to your website.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 3: Update your plugin settings<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Along with adding content, you may also want to configure your wiki\u2019s settings. We&#8217;ll do this by going to <em>Settings<\/em> &gt; <em>Yada Wiki<\/em>:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here you can update <a href=\"https:\/\/wpengine.com\/resources\/what-is-a-wordpress-slug\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the slug<\/a> for your wiki, if you want it to appear at a different URL. You can also allow comments, pingbacks, and use of the <a href=\"https:\/\/wpengine.com\/resources\/wordpress-gutenberg-editor\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Block Editor<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Using a WordPress wiki theme<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Using a WordPress wiki theme is one of the easiest ways to build your website. This is the best solution if you are not using your main website for your wiki, or if your website will contain only a wiki and nothing else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Try using these themes to create your wiki<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There are many themes you can use for your wiki. Here are a few options to get you started:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/themes\/mywiki\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>MyWiki<\/strong><\/a><strong>:<\/strong> A fast and minimalist free theme.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/themes\/myknowledgebase\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>MyKnowledgeBase<\/strong><\/a><strong>:<\/strong> A lightweight free theme with customizable templates.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/themeforest.net\/item\/flatbase-a-responsive-knowledge-basewiki-theme\/7264664?\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Flatbase<\/strong><\/a><strong>:<\/strong> A highly-responsive premium option with lots of customization potential.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/themeforest.net\/item\/knowhow-a-knowledge-base-wordpress-theme\/2813111?\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>KnowHow<\/strong><\/a><strong>:<\/strong> A great choice for building a stylish wiki quickly.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The premium themes generally offer greater customization and more features than the free options, but both can get the job done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 1: Install WordPress on a subdomain or directory<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you do not want the wiki to be your primary website, you\u2019ll need to <a href=\"https:\/\/wpengine.com\/resources\/install-wordpress-on-subdomain\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">install WordPress on a subdomain<\/a> or directory. The steps required for this will vary depending on your web host.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After creating your subdomain or directory, install WordPress on it. You can generally do this using the one-click installation feature offered by your hosting provider.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 2: Choose a wiki theme and install it<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Once your WordPress installation is ready, you\u2019ll need to install a wiki theme. If you are using a free theme, go to <em>Appearances<\/em> &gt; <em>Themes<\/em> and click on <em>Add New<\/em>. Search for the theme you want, and click on <em>Install<\/em> and then <em>Activate<\/em>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are using a premium theme, you\u2019ll need to upload its zip file. Go to <em>Appearances<\/em> &gt; <em>Themes<\/em> &gt;<em> Add New<\/em>, and select <em>Upload Theme<\/em>. Remember to activate the theme once the upload is complete.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 3: Customize the theme<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>After installation, you\u2019ll want to customize and personalize your theme. To do this, navigate to <em>Appearances<\/em> &gt; <em>Customize<\/em>. This opens the your website preview and provides access to many configuration settings:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Customizing your wiki\u2019s looks is similar to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wpbeginner.com\/beginners-guide\/how-to-use-wordpress-theme-customizer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">adjusting any WordPress theme<\/a>. When you are happy with the appearance of your website, click on <em>Publish<\/em> to make your changes live.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 4: Add wiki content<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You can add content to your wiki theme the same way you\u2019d add new posts and pages. Depending on your chosen theme, you may do this under <em>Posts<\/em> or <em>Pages<\/em>, or there might be a specialized <em>Wiki<\/em> content type.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Either way, you can generally use the familiar WordPress editor to add and edit your wiki content. Don\u2019t forget to publish each piece when it\u2019s ready, so visitors can view it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Using a custom code snippet<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The final method for creating a wiki on an existing or new WordPress site is through custom code snippets. This method provides a lot of freedom, but can be intimidating for beginners. If you are going to use code snippets, remember to make a <a href=\"https:\/\/wpengine.com\/support\/restore\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">full backup<\/a> of your website first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 1: Install and activate <a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/knowledge-base-cpt\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Knowledge Base CPT<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To start using code snippets, you can install and activate the plugin <a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/knowledge-base-cpt\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Knowledge Base CPT<\/a>. This plugin is recommended because it creates a <a href=\"https:\/\/wpengine.com\/resources\/wordpress-custom-post-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">custom post type<\/a> called <em>Knowledge Base<\/em> and a <a href=\"https:\/\/wpengine.com\/resources\/wordpress-categories-and-tags\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">taxonomy<\/a> called <em>section<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 2: Add and organize your wiki content<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>After activating the plugin, add your wiki content to the website. Go to <em>Knowledge Base<\/em> &gt; <em>Add New<\/em>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Adding content here is the same as creating a new post or page on your WordPress website. When the content is ready, click on <em>Publish<\/em> to add it to your website.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 3: Add the code snippets<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You are now ready to add code snippets to <a href=\"https:\/\/codex.wordpress.org\/Functions_File_Explained\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">your site\u2019s <em>functions.php<\/em> file<\/a>. This file is found under <em>Appearances<\/em> &gt; <em>Theme Editor<\/em>. Add <a href=\"https:\/\/webnoo.com\/support\/knowledge\/create-wiki-knowledge-base-using-wordpress\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the following code<\/a> to it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>function wpb_knowledgebase() {\n    \/\/ Get Knowledge Base Sections\n    $kb_sections = get_terms('section','orderby=name&amp;hide_empty=0');\n    \/\/ For each knowledge base section\n    foreach ($kb_sections as $section) :\n    $return .= '&lt;div class=\"kb_section\"&gt;';\n    \/\/ Display Section Name\n    $return .= '&lt;h4 class=\"kb-section-name\"&gt;&lt;a href=\"'. get_term_link( $section ) .'\" title=\"'. $section-&gt;name .'\" &gt;'. $section-&gt;name .'&lt;\/a&gt;&lt;\/h4&gt;&lt;ul class=\"kb-articles-list\"&gt;';\n    \/\/ Fetch posts in the section\n    $kb_args = array(\n        'post_type' =&gt; 'knowledge_base',\n        'posts_per_page'=&gt;-1,\n        'tax_query' =&gt; array(\n            array(\n                'taxonomy' =&gt; 'section',\n                'terms'    =&gt; $section,\n            )       ,\n        ),\n    );\n    $the_query = new WP_Query( $kb_args );\n        if ( $the_query-&gt;have_posts() ) : \n            while ( $the_query-&gt;have_posts() ) : $the_query-&gt;the_post(); \n                $return .=  '&lt;li class=\"kb-article-name\"&gt;';\n                $return .=  '&lt;a href=\"'. get_permalink( $the_post-&gt;ID ) .'\" rel=\"bookmark\" title=\"'. get_the_title( $the_post-&gt;ID ) .'\"&gt;'. get_the_title( $the_post-&gt;ID ) .'&lt;\/a&gt;';\n                $return .=  '&lt;\/li&gt;';\n            endwhile; \n    wp_reset_postdata(); \n         else : \n                $return .= '&lt;p&gt;No Articles Found&lt;\/p&gt;';\n        endif; \n    $return .=  '&lt;\/ul&gt;&lt;\/div&gt;';\n    endforeach;\n    return $return;\n}\n\/\/ Create shortcode \nadd_shortcode('knowledgebase', 'wpb_knowledgebase');<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>This code lists all of your wiki articles under the relevant sections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, you\u2019ll need to create a new WordPress page for your knowledge base. Go to <em>Pages<\/em> &gt; <em>Add New<\/em> and title it <em>Knowledge Base<\/em>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the editor, choose the <em>Shortcode<\/em> block. Enter <em>[knowledgebase]<\/em>, and publish the page. This creates a plain wiki page. You can then add <a href=\"https:\/\/webnoo.com\/support\/knowledge\/create-wiki-knowledge-base-using-wordpress\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the following code<\/a> to the <em>style.css<\/em> file in the <em>Theme Editor<\/em> to adjust it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>.kb_section {\nfloat: left;\nwidth: 280px;\nmax-width: 280px;\nmargin: 10px;\nbackground-color: #f5f5f5;\nborder: 1px solid #eee;\n}\nh4.kb-section-name {\nbackground-color: #eee;\nmargin: 0;\npadding: 5px;\n}\nul.kb-section-list {\nlist-style-type: none;\nlist-style: none;\ndisplay: inline;\n}   \nli.kb-section-name {\nlist-style-type: none;\ndisplay: inline;\n}\nul.kb-article-list {\nlist-style-type: none;\nlist-style: none;\n}   \nli.kb-article-name {\nlist-style-type: none;\n}\ndiv.kb_section:nth-of-type(3n+1) {clear:left;}\ndiv.kb_section:nth-of-type(3n+3) {}<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, you can save the file and preview the changes to your website<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Explore WP Engine\u2019s developer resources<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Adding a wiki to your WordPress website is possible with plugins, themes, and custom code snippets. The method you choose depends on the location of your wiki, and how you want to use it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No matter what type of site you\u2019re building, you\u2019ll need access to the best resources in order to ensure an incredible digital experience. <a href=\"https:\/\/wpengine.com\/plans\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">WP Engine offers this and more<\/a>, leaving you time to focus on <a href=\"https:\/\/developer.wordpress.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">developing WordPress sites<\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The internet is full of wikis, because they are easy to use and they make sharing information fast.
